The fifth album from Yacht (Young Americans Challenging High Technology – those Americans being Jona Bechtolt and Claire L Evans) is a hectic, high-impact concept album about a dysfunctional world evolving towards some kind of hyper-enlightened dance-party paradise, complete with lots of talk about cosmic communion and the "kinetic potential" within us all. The sound of this great awakening is a suitably starry-eyed riot of colourful synths, rubbery basslines and playground-pop vocals – opener Utopia's warp-speed punk-funk gets things off to a hurtling start; between here and the melodious toy-town piano closer Shangri-La lies plenty more ear-bashingly catchy disco-pop and a couple of moody mini-epics for good measure. It's hit-and-miss stuff, exhausting as often as it is exciting, and perhaps never quite as out-there as you might expect. Arguable whether this vision of paradise is really the one to unite all peoples and nations, but you can't knock 'em for trying.
